Piece of dirt, that is all I'm standing on todayPiece of dirt, the whole world has slipped awayI would climb the highest mountain just to jump into a fountainOr to fly, I'd fly away

A woman's voice on the radio can convince you you're in loveA woman's voice on the telephone can convince you you're aloneBut I set my sails so long ago they've revoked my sailor's badgeSaid I should be content and happy on this ink spot where I stand

Piece of dirt, that is all I'm standing on todayPiece of dirt, the whole world has slipped awayI find myself haunted by a spooky man named meI wish that I could jump out of my skin
